The digital murals launched on October 5, featuring each city’s local artist and a rotating presentation of mruals in the Chicago Bulls and Chicago Blackhawks United Center, the Portland Trail Blazers Moda Center, the Sacramento Kings Golden 1 Center, the Los Angeles Football Club Banc of California Stadium, the Miami Heat American Airlines Arena, the Milwaukee Bucks Fiserv Forum, the Washington Wizards Capital One Arena, the Washington Nationals Nationals Park, the Cleveland Cavaliers Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, the San Francisco Giants Oracle Park, the Oakland A’s Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum, and Times Square.

“Art has the power to unite, it has the power to amplify messages of hope and encourage dialogue,” said Jessica Goldman Srebnick, founder of Goldman Global Arts. “Art has the power to create change. We are proud to work with When We All Vote to bring together 13 American artists to amplify the importance of every vote and broadcast that message on billboards across the country while also sharing these original works in a vibrant social media campaign. It is a project I am exceedingly proud of. No matter your party, we must do our part to protect democracy, we must all VOTE.”

Each mural revolves around the importance of civic engagement and the responsibility of voting. Themes encompassing voter registration, vote-by-mail, voting day, and the history of voting in America are tied into the pieces. Through art and these pieces in specific, the diverse communities that take these works in daily are encouraged to vote early, vote by mail, or vote in person on November 3.
